AKG WMS470C5SETBD10 - UHF Band 10 Wireless System with C5 Microphone and Receiver

AKG WMS470C5SETBD10 - UHF Band 10 Wireless System with C5 Microphone and SR470 Receiver

The AKG WMS470C5SETBD10 is a professional UHF wireless system designed for vocals that combines the SR470 receiver with the HT470 handheld microphone equipped with a C5 capsule (condenser, cardioid). It works in Band 10 (BD10) , the European section of the 823–832 MHz duplex gap (depending on version, typical subrange 826.3–831.9 MHz and local regulations). It incorporates microprocessor-controlled diversity , transmission with pilot tone to avoid unwanted noise, infrared synchronization and a 30.5 MHz tuning window typical of the series to configure multi-channel systems quickly and stably. In audio, the link offers 35 Hz–20 kHz and a typical signal-to-noise ratio of 120 dB(A) , while the C5 capsule provides a 65 Hz–20 kHz response with a cardioid pattern optimized for vocals. The transmitter runs on a single AA battery and lasts up to 14 hours on lithium, making it ideal for live performances, theater, events, and rentals.

Main features

• Vocal set: SR470 receiver + HT470 handheld transmitter with C5 capsule (condenser, cardioid).
• Frequency band: Band 10 (BD10) 823–832 MHz (depending on version/country; typical subrange 826.3–831.9 MHz).
• Multi-channel capability in BD10: up to 8 simultaneous channels within this band.
• RF Stability: Microprocessor diversity and pilot tone for safe muting.
• Quick setup: Auto Setup , frequency scan and IR synchronization receiver→transmitter.
• Selectable RF power: 10 mW or 50 mW (according to regulations).
• Transmitter battery life: up to 14 h with lithium AA; approx. 7 h (alkaline) / 8 h (Ni-MH).
• System audio link: 35 Hz–20 kHz (±3 dB), typical SNR 120 dB(A) , THD ≤0.3–0.7 % depending on the stage.
• Receiver outputs: Balanced XLR switchable −30/0 dB and unbalanced 6.35 mm TS jack .
• Antennas and construction: BNC connectors for 1/4-wave antennas; 19" metal half-rack chassis with mounting kit included.
• Set contents: SR470, HT470 with C5, 2 BNC antennas, stand adapter, rack kit , EU/UK/US universal power supply and 1 AA battery.

Product benefits

• Clear, present voice: The C5 capsule (65 Hz–20 kHz, cardioid) offers high intelligibility and excellent gain before feedback in demanding scenarios.
• Event reliability: True diversity and pilot tone prevent power-up noise and RF dropouts, with battery monitoring in hours from the receiver.
• Fast setup: IR scanning and synchronization reduce setup times, even in multi-channel configurations within the BD10 span.
• Professional integration: balanced/unbalanced outputs, BNC antennas and compatibility with AKG range of antenna accessories.

Use cases

• Live and touring: lead and backing vocals with mobility and controlled lateral rejection.
• Theater and Corporate: Group/Preset Programming and Rehearsal Mode to verify coverage before the event.
• Fixed installations: auditoriums, temples and educational centers that require several simultaneous UHF channels.

Frequently Asked Questions

• How many simultaneous channels does the BD10 allow? In band 10 (823–832 MHz) , up to eight simultaneous channels can be operated with proper planning.
• Does the C5 capsule require a phantom power supply? No. The HT470 internally powers the capsule; the system operates on an AA battery.
• Can I use it in my country? Use of the 823–832 MHz band is subject to local regulations. Check your country's PMSE/UFH allocations before operating.
